Extremly rare book, as well as the oldest book about mangroves I know. It contains 47 black and white photos of many different mangrove species and mangrove land scapes, which really help you to identify the different mangrove species.

I really was supriesed how detailed the excellent photos are, mangrove books from today still can learn from this book.

The book informs about many different mangrove species on the Philippines as well as about the distribution of mangroves that time, as well as about the use and value of mangroves.

Definatley one of the most intersting mangrove books all over the world.
